There is a kind of character in thy life,
That to the observer doth thy history
Fully unfold. [ William Shakespeare ]

Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. [ St. Paul ]

One cannot be fully happy until after his sixtieth year. [ Bonstetten ]

Humor is the offspring of man; it comes forth like Minerva, fully armed from the brain. [ L'Estrange ]

Ridicule, while it often checks what is absurd, fully as often smothers that which is noble. [ Scott ]

Fully to understand a grand and beautiful thought requires, perhaps, as much time as to conceive it. [ Joubert ]

He that will believe only what he can fully comprehend, must have a very long head, or a very short creed. [ C. C. Colton ]

Our souls must become expanded by the contemplation of Nature's grandeur, before we can fully comprehend the greatness of man. [ Heine ]

The proverbial wisdom of the populace in the street, on the roads, and in the markets instructs the ear of him who studies man more fully than a thousand rules ostentatiously displayed. [ Lavater ]

Be it remembered that man subsists upon the air more than upon his meat and drink: but no one can exist for an hour without a copious supply of air. The atmosphere which some breathe is contaminated and adulterated, and with its vital principles so diminished that it cannot fully decarbonize the blood, nor fully excite the nervous system. [ Thackeray ]

Over Under. These words have various meanings besides the designation of mere locality, and are often misapplied. The terms under oath, under hand and seal, under arms, under his own signature, etc., are fully established and authorized forms of expression, which do not concern the relative positions of the persons and things indicated, but are idiomatic. Hence, over his own signature, is an unjustifiable phrase, despite the fact that the signature is really at the bottom of the instrument signed. [ Pure English, Hackett And Girvin, 1884 ]
